My Handsome Adventure

chapter 21

Joan's POV

"How are we gonna get out?" I ask
pulling the hoodie over my head.

"The window of course." Noah says moving towards it.
"I'll go first. Just follow me."

He gets out of the window and hangs onto  a branch. The leaves sprinkle  rain drops on him, making his wet hair fall over his eyes.

"Alright whisper your turn." He says moving downwards.

I slip through the window and cling to the nearby branch. The rain drops fall on my body making me shiver a bit.

I climb down gradually, taking very cautious steps.

"Whisper do you think you can get down from there this Century?" Noah teases as I reach the bottom.

"Shut up and help me get off."

Noah grabs me by my waist and pulls me towards him.
"You're so wet." He says smiling down at me.

It takes me moment to realize what he meant.

"You pervert." I hit him on the chest and push him away.

"Oww.  Don't hurt me whisper." He says looking at me innocently.

Damn his looks.
" Come on let's go before some one sees us." I say pulling him away from the house.

The rain seems to get heavier by every passing minute.  But that's doesn't matter at all. The rain just makes everything more wonderful.

We reach the nearest supermarket almost drenched. We get many looks from the people as we make our way to the chocolate aisle. Noah doesn't seem to bother any of it .

He picks up 4 packets of M&M's  excitingly. "Do you want anything else your highness?" He asks bowing a little.

"Nothing at the moment gentleman." I reply sweetly earning a laugh from him.

"You kids are perfect together." The  throaty voice of an old lady interrupts our little role play.

We turn to look at a lady, probably in her sixties. She looks like one of the Grandma's kids watch in animations. Short and plump with round glasses at the tip of her nose which tempts me to push it back a bit backward. With her smooth looking snow white hair in  a bun she does look adorable.

She must've thought we're a couple. I feel my cheeks heat up. Before I get a chance to protest at her comment Noah pulls me towards his side, his arm resting on my hip.

"Thank you mam. That means a lot to us." He says flashing his prince charming smile.

I look at him with my mouth half open. But he doesn't even glance at me.

"Do you want any help mam?" Noah enquires politely.

"No thank you dear." She says smiling. You're lucky to have such a sweet boy. Don't loose him." She says to me .

I just nod and smile in return not knowing what to reply.

Noah's grip on my waist becomes a little more tight.

The old lady bids us goodbye and walks away.

"Don't loose me whisper." Noah repeats the words of the old woman into my ears and goes to the counter to pay for the chocolates.

"I won't."  I make a secret promise in my mind looking over to where Noah stands staring at the chocolates eagerly with a wide grin.

Out of all the guys in the world I'm in love with this weird guy.
